Alarming catalogue details hazard warnings
Exclusively available from distributor Switchtec is the first ever UK dedicated catalogue from Sirena, Europe's leading manufacturer of visual and acoustic signalling equipment.
Ideal for use in filters and control panels, there are 12 versions of the MPT series currently available based on the following models; the MTP275 rated at 24A, MPT410 (32A), MPT610 (41A), MPT1010 (57A), MPT1612 (76A), MPT2515 (101A) and the latest addition to the range, the 150A-rated MPT5018.
Available from specialist distributor Switchtec, the MPT series is supplied as standard in grey plastic, however Euroclamp is able to produce the terminals to order in many colours including black, green, orange, blue, red etc.
To suit a wide range of applications, most of the MPT series are available with different termination types.
The options available are solder tag, hook, blade or screw.
Offering versatility and convenience, there are two methods of fixing the MPT series terminals to the panel; wedge comb is fast, easy and secure, alternatively a locknut style provides a more secure fixing whilst taking a little longer to fit.
Most of the MPT series have UL/CSA, VDE, IMQ and CE approvals and Euroclamp is constantly adding to or improving the range.
Euroclamp identified that there were a small number of manufacturers for this type of terminal and that demand was strong.
As a manufacturer of terminal blocks and connectors, Euroclamp used its in-house expertise to design and manufacture a range of through panel terminal blocks.
Competitively priced, Euroclamp MPT series through panel terminals are fully RoHS compliant and available ex-stock from Switchtec.
